Can we ever go to the BCSCG without controversy?

2003: USC gets left out, split NC
2007: We get in with 2 losses
2011: The Rematch issue

It's like all the focus ISN'T on our team any of these years, but the way we got there, and someone else in the game...

There's BCS controversy in the years that we won, but never about us being in the game. We've always been looked at as a legitimate contender.

The controversy is Bama, not LSU.

Exactly.

Provided LSU beats UGA, they would've earned their way in.

Bama got in through the backdoor, and if they win it all, their championship will forever have a big fat asterisk by it.

Nope. If we beat Bama again, people will say that we didn't get tested by one of those potent offenses that should have had a shot.

Guaranteed!!!!

Definitely agree! However, although the talking heads have declared Bama is "in" that's not really the case since the final numbers are not in until next week.

I've been saying, the media will spin it somehow to make a championship less legit. If we play bama then they will say we never stepped up to a big 12 offense. If we play someone other than bama they will say bama outplayed us and was the better team.

It's annoying, but frick'em. I just want another crystal ball.

It's a flawed system. It always has been and always will be as long as there is not playoff. Until then these are all MNC's in my opinion.

And by that I don't mean calling the regular season a playoff, cause I know every game is important, but in know way can playing your conference schedule and whoever you want in the other games in any way be considered a true relevant playoff. It just means the games are important, but you can still maybe lose one and hell sometimes two and still take it all.

Just win.



Beating Bama twice in the same season cannot be ignored.

I don't know. If OSU lays the wood to OU and we beat Bama for the title, there is going to be A LOT of talk about how OSU didn't get it's shot.

then they will get in - there will be no controversy with a 14-0 LSU. None.
